aCentauri Solar Racing’s mission is to inspire and educate students and the broader public about the power of sustainable technology in the field of mobility.
Our project involves designing, building and testing a solar car to drive 3'000 km through Australia in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, competing against top teams from universities around the world.
We aim to leave a sustainable impact on Swiss students and partners, representing ETH Zurich and Switzerland as the engineering and innovative powerhouses they are. Let’s aCe!
Are you ready for the new generation of our aCentauri Solar Car? Over the past few months the team has been busy building the new car.
With lots of new ideas and innovations flowing into the new car, we are sure to aCe the race.
The Bridgestone World Solar Challenge is a biennial event that brings together innovators from around the world to race solar-powered cars across the Australian outback. The event is not only a thrilling race, but also a platform for showcasing the latest advancements in sustainable mobility.
From solar panels to aerodynamic designs, the participating teams employ various technologies to maximize their car's performance and efficiency.
The race covers over 3000 km of challenging terrain, providing a real-world test for the solar cars and their teams. The event attracts teams from top universities, research institutes, and corporations, all with a common goal of promoting clean energy and sustainable transportation.
The cuts for our t-shirts and hoodies are custom-developed. Our designs combine style with sustainability, resulting in clothing that represents not just our team, but everyone who believes in aCentauri and its vision.
